Racing under the Illusion of Grandeur: A Guide for Men and Women over Forty Who Want to Drive like Mario (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781483489407)

In 2006, a nearly fifty-year-old Russ Rosenberg had an epiphany. For years, he had been searching for a hobby that would hold his interest. After trying Guitar lessons, shooting sports and fly fishing, Russ tapped into his lifelong passion for cool cars. A short time later, he bought a used Miata, signed up for autocross school, and eventually began road racing. In a comprehensive guide, Russ relies on his experiences as an amateur racer to provide a roadmap for beginner racers that offers time-tested wisdom on how to start in the sport, avoid costly mistakes, and secure a logical path to success. He includes valuable insight into how to choose the right car and the true cost of racing as well as entertaining racing stories for the over-forty crowd, photos, resources, and an honest opinion on the sport from his wife, Lisa. " ... A must read for anyone who is considering getting involved in racing ..." -Tony Parella, CEO, Sportscar Vintage Racing Association
